Criminal Records - Disclosure and Barring

Criminal record checks, disclosure and barring for staff and volunteers in advice organisations

Should you seek a criminal record disclosure for advice service staff and volunteers?  What are your responsibilities with regard to barring?  Volunteering England have produced a helpful briefing and briefings have also been produced by NAVCA. The website for the Disclosure and Barring Service has moved from the Home Office website. General information can be found here, and more detailed information here.  If, like many organisations, you are confused about whether or not the role requires a check, you can e-mail the Disclosure and Barring Service with details of the role and whether a check is permitted or required.
